Former Black Stars midfield enforcer, Emmanuel Agyemang Badu has shared his view on how Ghana can qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The player is of the view that while Ghana has been pitted in a manageable group, the national team cannot let its guard down.
Speaking to Akoma FM in an interview, Emmanuel Agyemang Badu urged Black Stars head coach Chris Hughton to create competition in the Black Stars to eliminate complacency.
He also proposed that discipline must be established in the national team if Ghana is to qualify for the next mundial.
“Our World Cup Group is manageable on paper but tricky and dangerous in reality. We have fallen behind the pecking order. We are no more a powerhouse in African football. We need to accept that we have struggled against all those teams in the group apart from Chad.
“We must hope for a good season and playing time for our players so that it can translate into their performance for the national team. The Coach must create competition in the team to eliminate any complacency.
“He must establish total discipline in the team and not tolerate any egoistic behaviours. I am sure we can qualify if we do the right things,” Badu said.
Ghana is drawn in Group I of the African qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
In the group, the Black Stars will face their counterparts from Mali, Chad, Comoros, Madagascar, and the Central African Republic.
